NSFW video: Hockey butts against homophobia

Those British jocks just can’t keep their clothes on when showing their support for gays! They know us so well.

The Warwick rowing team has paved the way, but now the University of Nottingham hockey team is getting in on the naked action in a new video.

Filmed by the University of Nottingham’s student-run Voice Your Rights project, which promotes human rights on campus, the video shows the team playing a game naked and talking about how “background doesn’t matter” when it comes to sport.

“When we were approached to make the film we were more than happy to do it and didn’t think twice about saying yes,” says Piers Denning, president of the hockey club. “On the day of filming it’s fair to say we were a little bit apprehensive at first, but as soon as we stripped off it was fine. We had so much fun. It was an absolutely freezing day, so there was some hesitation to actually get naked, but it just made it even more of a laugh. Everyone was in stitches all the way through filming. Personally, I’ve never done anything like this before, but seeing the reaction to the video definitely makes me glad I agreed to strip off!”
